About the Book:
Poems by Schaeffer Lemalu (1983-2021)
Introduction by Donald Revell
The debut collection from a great poet and artist gone too soon. His word is among us, travelling still, full of candour, humility, and a loving regard for detail.
Schaeffer is in that rare company of poets who could dismantle the hierarchy of perception. This is a poetics of intimacy: open, rare, unguarded.
